Program Notes

Ornate Wobbegong is a suite for solo snare drum in three movements, each exploring a different style of snare drum performance. The first is a representation of concert (orchestral) snare drumming, the second a pseudo multiple percussion piece on a single drum - showcasing both timbre and implements utilized - and the final movement is a rudimental solo based in the ancient style. The title is drawn from a species of shark (Orectolobus ornatus) whose description reads “dangerous, particularly when provoked, captured or stepped on.”[1]
